The University of the Cordilleras successfully hosted the Digital Transformation for Natural Hazards (DIGIHAZ) 2026 Evaluation and Project Proposal Workshop and Annual Online Conference for Young Researchers from October 19–23, 2026. This marked the consortium’s first official visit to the Philippines.

Key outputs of the five-day event included the presentation and evaluation of research outputs and project proposals, the exchange of technical knowledge and feedback, strengthened partnerships among participating institutions, and the identification of opportunities for future collaborative research and projects.

The consortium comprises the University of Alicante, Spain; the University of West Attica, Greece; Xavier University and UC in the Philippines; and Universiti Sains Malaysia and Universiti Utara Malaysia.

Funded by the European Union through the Erasmus+ Programme, DIGIHAZ supports international cooperation in higher education, research, and digital transformation for natural hazard risk reduction.
